ships  shall  make  requisition  for  the  amount  of  mac- 
adam desired  by  them,  which  requisition  shall  be 
filed  with  the  County  Clerk,  and  shall  be  examined 
by  the  Committee  on  Criminal  Labor,  who  shall  have 
power,  if  in  their  opinion  the  requisition  is  for  a 
greater  amount  than  the  townships  are  reasonbly 
entitled  to,  to  reduce  the  amount. 

The  macadam  shall  be  delivered  to  the  townships 
in  rotation  according  to  the  filing  of  the  requisition.

apply  throughout  the  list.  If  any  Commissioner 
shall  fail  three  successive  times  to  call  for  the  mac- 
adam, the  requisition  shall  be  considered  as  aban- 
doned. 

All  resolutions,  rules  or  orders  heretofore  passed 
by  the  Board  of  Supervisors  and  in  conflict  with  any 
rules,  regulations  or  standing  orders  hereinabove 
contained  are  hereby  repealed,  and  these  rules  to  be
